ST. LOUIS, Missouri – United States Arbitration & Mediation (USA&M), which was recently acquired by Miles Mediation & Arbitration, is proud to announce that it was named the “Top Choice” for the “Independent Arbitrator” category and the “Top Choice” for the “Alternate Dispute Resolution Provider” category in the Missouri Lawyers Media’s 2024 Reader Rankings Awards.

The annual Reader Ranking Awards allow the legal community to vote on the businesses and organizations that support them, choosing those that are outstanding in the services they offer to attorneys. Lawyers vote for their top choices in six broad categories that are divided into six broad areas, including financial; firm management services; hospitality; legal education; technology; and trial services. The “firm management services” features categories that range from alternative dispute resolution provider and attorney escrow services to court reporting/deposition service and legal recruiter and legal staffing agency to malpractice insurance provider and process server.

“We are very pleased to be named the top choice for both awards as it reflects the caliber of the mediators and arbitrators on our panel,” says Rob Litz, mediator, arbitrator, and the president of USA&M. “Now that we are affiliated with Miles, we look forward to continuing to provide the same outstanding level of service that our clients have come to expect while we expand our reach.”
